It seems like everyone on this forum are losers
A fuckton of people here are saying they live in tier sub 3 cities (Charlotte, Houston, etc) and work at MM/boutiques, or are borderline back office (CRE, ECM, etc). Most are from semi to non targets and are in very unprestigious groups.
Where are the former frat kids who got a GS TMT/MS M&A/PJT RSSG seat from their parents connections? Or kids in London who went straight to PE and are now finishing up their MBA from LBS/HSW/INSEAD?
It seems like I'm more successful (and I'm in my early 20s) than most of you clowns who I was originally here to get advice from.
Consensus: WSO is the 4chan/reddit of finance.
Dear Prospect,
This is foolishness. You can make plenty of money in any of those other cities (millions of dollars, and I don’t imagine you expect people to make more than that). How is CRE back-office? If it’s brokerage, then that’s similar to IB in the sense that you have a buy-side, a sell-side, an asset, and a commission. If it’s REPE, there’s millions to be made there as well. ECM is a revenue generating role. I can make millions doing follow-ons and IPOs, or I can do it with M&A. You betray your own ignorance. “Front-office” doesn’t mean “I no likey.” It means “revenue generating role at a financial firm like a bank or brokerage.” This is not negotiable. This is the definition. Your opinions on how much to esteem these people is irrelevant to their “position in the office.”
Sincerely,
NYC M&A banker
The fact that you discreetly neglected to mention your alma mater and current bank makes me think you're a kelley kid at jefferies/nomura
Great, let’s say I’m IU and at Jefferies. IU is the #23 business school by US News and your ASU is #30, so where does that leave us? Cheers
nobody goes to IU for the hoes, I went to ASU for the sorority sluts because UCSB was too expensive
Okay, so you pick a business school 7 spots lower because of your prospects of having sex with women. Am I supposed to give you a gold star? This is WSO.
Even your attempt at bashing others was a “better station” than you’re in. Respect others.
Let's talk about your anger
